Esemplare continues to break through the market with a unique take on fashion that does not shy away from testing the boundaries of technical style. Their Adelwolf  toggle knit sweater features a hood with a braided hemp closure. The knit fabric gets technical: the cotton is mercerized to give a slight luster to the garment. We love the look.

Find Esemplare through select retailers and online.

Italian outerwear maker, Esemplare is still young in seasons, but continues to experiment in positive ways with mixed knits against technical fabrics in this wide range of outerwear. Heavy knit shells are compliments on the interiors with down filled liners that make them extraordinarily warm on wear. The silhouettes on the Esemplare garments follow the guidance of their Italian roots, and offer a vast array of options for the buyers looking for unique outerwear jacket, overcoat, or parka to mix into their wardrobe.

Be sure and spend some time in our gallery for a variety of looks from Esemplare’s Autumn/Winter 2012 collection. The details tell the story. As seen at Pitti Uomo.

Let’s face it: the cap options for the winter are endless. We happen to love the cable knits more than most, but Esemplare’s simple Cooper cap, while not our preferred pattern is a drop dead simple wool cap in grey. The Bartam on the otherhand hits the nail on the cable knit’s head. It is a bit more extended in the length than the Cooper, so choose wisely. Either way, you cannot go wrong with the quality and build from Esemplare. Buy them online.

Following up on our Esemplare preview from Pitti, we bring a fuller look at their Spring/Summer 2012 offering. The focus is on high-tech jackets and parkas – many of which are made from very lightweight materials that resist your desire to keep the lines clean. Fabric on their George, Miles, and Cleford jackets are crinkled in a manner that keep the look unique while allowing you to pack and stow them without the worry of wrinkles. Beyond the fabrics, the Esemplare line makes use of colors and patterns that are unique the line. Our gallery gives a much better look…

Italy’s Esemplare continues to push their fine collection of outerwear for Autumn/Winter 2011. The collection is a large one so we’ll look at the knits for a while. 100% merino and lana merino extrafine wool is used throughout the collection on cardigans and beyond. Above we show the wool hooded cardigan with a detachable hand quilted vest. We imagine this garment will be as warm as it looks. Much more to see from Esemplare in our gallery.

The season for shawl knits is creeping up on us. For many the acceptable face of the cardigan there’s just something special about having an ear warming collar to pull up on a cold day. This navy Giacca knit from Esemplare is produced in Italy from Botto Poala wool. The ribbed cuffs and hem are a nice touch as is the double zip. More over at Peggs and Son. -ld

Italy’s Esemplare showcases their Spring/Summer 2012 collection at this summer’s Pitti Uomo in Florence, Italy. The collection, which uses new technical fabrics across various outerwear silhouettes (as seen in our gallery) also mixes in some classic looks, including the toggle coat shown above. They’re more technical than a contract lawyer’s personal pre-nup agreement. Overall the Esemplare looks are forward thinking technical takes on outerwear that warrants a deserving consideration.
